Saying Good-byes

The time has finally arrived!  We leave tomorrow evening.  The large suitcases are packed and sitting in the living room ready to go.  The last loads of laundry are nearly done.  The final two beach bocci games were played.  What?

Well you know the important things to take care of before leaving... playing bocci ball on the beach with our good friends M & C.  We have been playing all year/season - boys against the girls.  However, there is a bit of dispute as to whether the season is over or not ... there are a couple of weekends in December when we get back that may be open ...  so the season may not be quite finished ... yet.  And by the way, who needs the sun to play on the beach???  The weathermen predicted sun yesterday and today, not a ray to be seen either day!  Several friends even came to the beach to see if we were playing ...  You bet!  Go Girls!!!  :)


Our cat Butternuts, aka Bufurd, will be left here to watch the place while we are gone.  (Actually, the kids will be watching him while we are gone, but he thinks he is the one in charge.)  We will miss the silly cat as this will be a long time away.  Each evening as we take a hottub, he is right there with us drinking in that wonderful hot-chlorine water -- yum!?!  "Can I go too?"  he says.
Goodbye Cute Kitty!  We are ready.  Next stop Lisbon...
